IBM 9009 41A S914 AIX Power 9 Servers

IBM 9009 41A S914 AIX Power 9 Systems

The IBM 9009-41A (Power System S914) is a powerful single-socket scale-out server powered by POWER9 processors. This 4U rack-mounted (or desk-side tower-capable) system delivers high performance, security, and I/O flexibility for business-critical applications on AIX, IBM i (virtualized), and Linux. It supports efficient deployment of core workloads with options for CAPI accelerators (on higher-core models), higher internal storage/SSD capacities, and hot-plug PCIe Gen3 slots (on 8-core configs). Designed for small to midsized enterprises, it offers excellent price/performance, energy efficiency, and integration in consolidated or hybrid cloud environments.

Key Features

  • POWER9 processor technology for superior per-core performance and energy efficiency.
  • Single-socket design with scalable core activation (4-core, 6-core, or 8-core).
  • Support for Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface (CAPI) accelerators (8-core rack-only).
  • Hot-plug PCIe Gen3 slots and higher internal storage/SSD capacities.
  • Multiple storage backplane options: 12/18 SFF bays (splittable), dual IOA with write cache, or SSD cage with Easy Tier.
  • Integrated SAS RAID controller (RAID 0/1/10 standard; optional RAID 5/6 with cache).
  • PowerVM virtualization for partitioning and resource optimization.
  • Supports IBM i partitions (virtualized, max 4 cores each, requires VIOS), AIX, Linux.
  • Capacity Upgrade on Demand for cores.

Technical Specifications

  • Form Factor: 4U rack-mounted (19-inch rack, EIA units) or desk-side tower; rack mandatory for 8-core model.
  • Processors: Single POWER9 socket:
    • EP10: 4-core 2.3–3.8 GHz.
    • EP11: 6-core 2.3–3.8 GHz.
    • EP12: 8-core 2.8–3.8 GHz (rack-only, higher performance).
  • Cores: 4, 6, or 8 activated cores.
  • Memory: Up to 1024 GB DDR4 (16 CDIMM slots; supported: 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB, 64 GB at 2133/2400/2666 Mbps).
    • Note: 4-core model limited to four slots and lower capacities (max 64 GB in some configs).
  • Storage: Multiple backplane options:
    • 12 hot-plug SFF-3 SAS/SATA bays (splittable).
    • 18 hot-plug SFF-3 bays with dual IOA and write cache.
    • Optional SSD cage with Easy Tier.
    • Max internal capacity up to ~32.4 TB (with expansion drawers up to higher via EXP24S).
  • PCIe Slots: Hot-plug PCIe Gen3 slots (higher capacity on 8-core).
  • Connectivity: Standard options (e.g., 4-port 1 Gbps Ethernet); optional high-speed adapters.
  • Power/Cooling: Redundant hot-swap supplies and fans.
  • RAID: Integrated RAID 0/1/10; optional write cache for RAID 5/6.
  • Other: Active Memory Expansion support; EnergyScale for efficiency.

Compatibility

  • Operating Systems: AIX, IBM i (virtualized LPARs max 4 cores each, requires VIOS), Linux.
  • Virtualization: PowerVM Enterprise Edition; supports multiple partitions.
  • Expansion: External I/O and disk drawers (e.g., EXP24S) for additional slots/storage.
  • Environments: Ideal for small/midsized businesses, core applications, database/middleware platforms, and consolidated workloads.
  • Legacy POWER9 system; no intermixing with incompatible newer generations.

This system comes with a 60-day warranty from Data Tech Computer.
